4 THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 14, 1896. MOORES TRIAL FOR MURDER AT NAPA Schaug, to Whom He Con- fessed, Takes the Stand. The Prisoner’s Story of Mrs. Greenwooed's Fate Offersd in Evidence. CARL SCEMIDT ALSO IN COURT Nothing Is Elicited From the Convict, Who Shows Every Sign of Insanity. = NAPA, Car, Nov. 13.—The trial of ‘William Moore was resumed this morn- ing. Captain Greenwood was recalled and testified with reference to the color of an overcoat taken on the uight of the murder irom his house. W. B. Schaug told of his acquaintance with Moore while in Los Angeles County, and said that while he (Schaug) was con- ducting a saloon business there Moore had frequently in the last year and a half come to his saloon for liguor. During this time Moore was known to the people of that vicinity by the name of George Knight. On the 5th day of September last Mcore came to Schaung’s place and volun- tarily offered to make a confession, and asked Schaug to write it down. Schaug complied with his request, and the con- fession was taken down word for word. That part of the confession relating to the Greenwood murder was offered in evi- dence by the prosecution, and was as follows: I went to Napa City and_worked for Cooper in the Vernon mills. I bourded with Brad- shaw. I went to work for Pete Lynch breaking horses; was there two seasons and went by the name of William Moore. While there I got acquainted with Mrs. Grecnwood. I had been there & number of times. Mr. Greenwood had o friendship for me. After finishing work for Pete I went to San Francisco and stopped at the What Cheer House, on Washington street. I registered under the name of Wil- liam Smith and left a change of clothes. I started back to Napa City and at Vallejo I met e green Duichman. I knew that] could use bim later on. stopped at the Greenwood residence. Mss. Greenwood was in Napa City. In a few minutes she drove up in a buggy. 1 helped her out and we both went into the house. All the time the Dutchman was stand- ing on the porch. 1 told him to go and tie the horse up. While he was gone Greenwood and I got info & fuss in the parlor. Greenwood &Hled his gun and I mine. Tuentheshootin gan. ~Isoot him through the lef: cheek an: knocked out one tooth. The same shot kilied his wife. nd drove y Bank. I d tne third man that was waiting for me. We intended going to tle cashiers house and take him tothe bank and make him open it. I took the horse and buggy back to Greenwood’s. This happened Februsry 9, 1891. 1 went back to the What Cheer House and changed my clothes and shaved before crossing over to San Francisco, Mr. Schaug testified that the defendant made the statement without any induce- ment or hope of reward being offered to The statement was written down by Schaug, a small portion being written each day for about twelve days. A copy of the original was then made by the son of Bchaug and the original was destroyed. This statement was then placed in the bands of Sheriff Burr. During the mak- ing of the statement Moore positively said to Scaaug: ‘1 am William Moore; Iam the murderer of Mrs. Greenwood.”” Much interest was manifested by the people when Carl Schmiat was placed on the stand. Long had they waited to see if Moore would be identified by him. Schmidt was arrested and convicted about five vears ago of the murder of Mrs. Green- wood. By his story, at the time of his trial, he admitted being at the Greenwood place at the time of the murder, but then said he was not the leading one in com- mittinz the crime. To-day when placed on the stand only vague answers were given to the questions that were pro- pounded to him. A recess was taken by order of the court and an examination of Schmidt was held in the Judge’s chambers as to his sanity, the Judge, the lawyers in the case, Dr. Lawlor of San Quentin and Drs. Hennes- sey and Shurtleff of Napa being present at the examination. Schmidt complained that ‘‘signers’ were talking to him con- tinualiy. Hegave many amusing answers to the questions asked him. Dr. Lawior of Ban Quentin said that Schmidt is insane and toat he is kept on ‘‘crank alley,’’ sepa- rate from the main body of prisoners. Schmidt now says that he was neyer in Napa County and never saw the Green- wood place. Of course, this was untrue, The trial was then resumed. Mrs. Wevse of Los Angeles was placed on tbe stand. She testified that she knew Moore, as he had worked for her on her ranch near Los Angeles. She also testified that Moore told her that he murdered Mrs. Green- wood in Napa in February, 1891. The court then adjourned nntil Tuesday mornitg. e Dr. Bowles Ilemovea From Office. NAPA, CaL. Nov. 13.—The board of trustees of the Napa State Insane Asylum to-day ordered that second assistant physician G. A. Bowles be removed from * his office. Governor Budd and the newly appointed trustee, Barrett, were present at the investigation. The action was the resu't of an assault made on resident physician A. M. Gardner a short time ago in the asvlum business office by Dr. Bowles. There is considerable specula- tion as to who will succeed Dr. Bowles, Dr. D. Smith, third assistant physician, being the most prominent candidate. LANDSLI AND WASHOUTS, derious Interruption to Irafiic on the Great Northern Koad. SEATTLE, Wasn., Nov. 13.—Serious washours and landslides, occasioned by an unprecedented rise of the Skykomish River, have occurred on the Great North- ern road in the Cascade Mountains, Freight and passenger trains cannot be moved across the mountains in either direction. The passenger train due here from St. Paul at 7 o’clock this morning could not get through, and to-night’s east. bound overland was abandoned and the postal authorities notified that no mails could be taken East. Washouts four or five in number and as many landslides have occurred in the mountains in the vicinity of the town of Skykomish. Unusually heavy rains for forty-eight hours past, together with a chinook wind melting the snow, have swollen the Skykomish Kiver beyond all proportions, washing out much trackage and inundating other portions in places to a depth of four or five feet. Much freicht for the Orient via the steamship Kinshui, which arrived in port ‘Wednesday, is also said to be tied up in the blockade on the east side. s B e NO VACANCY EXISTED. Aevada’s Newly Elected Lieutenant-Gov- ernor Without an Officr. CARSON, Nev., Nov. 13.—In an opin. jon rendered by Arttorney-General Beatty be holds that there is no vacancy in the office of Lieutenant-Governor during the period when “the powers and duties of | Governor are devolved upon the Lieuten- ant-Governor; that no vacancy in the oi- fice of Lieutenant-Governor has ever ex- isted or now exists in this State since the death of his Excellency, the late John E. Jones, and that the election of a Lieuten- ant-Governor av the last election was a nullity.” Sudgh oo M ONGOLIAN PPOGLIARITIES. Strange Case of Alleged Robbery and Abdwction tn a P’lecer Court. AUBURN, Cav., Nov. 13.—Placer's Su- perior Court was to-day delving into the mysteries of the affinities of the sexesas regards the yellow man. Wong Too Lung, a Penryn merchant, about a month ago sued out a warrant azainst Miss Sing Gue, who was ther living with F ng Yueck of Merced. Hesaccused the woman of stealing $40 from him some eleven vears ago. She was brought to Penryn, but complainant failed to prosecute but forced the woman to live with him. To- day the Merced Chinaman appeared and obtained the release of his lady love on a writ of habeas corpus. The woman seemed happy (0 go with the Fresno man.

SEATTLE, WasH., Nov. 13.—According to Japanese agents stationed here as much as 20,000,000 feet of timber recently cone tracted for from the Puget Sound mills is to be worked into ties with which to trans- form 2600 miles of narrow-guace railroad in Japan to broad-gauge, the necessity for this change having been emphasized by the Japan-China war. SUR DIEGD PROSPECTORS Return From a Trip to the Rich Gold Mines of San Francisquito. Consummate a Deal With the Owners of the Lost Mine Which Prom- ises Great Results. SAN DIEGO, CaLn., Nov. 13.—On the steamer Pacheco, which returned from Lower California to-day, were A. H. Lacey and A. R. Bryson of Los Angeles, who went down in company with John T. Gaffey and other Los Angeles men, to- gether with Adolfo Bareno, to visit the Bareno brothers’ gold mines at San Fran- cisquito, 350 miles southeast of this city, on the gulf coast of the peninsula. The party was the largest prospecting party that ever Jeft Ensenada and comprised tenmen and twenty animals. About six weeks was required for the round trip. Mr. Gaffey returned several days ago, but Messrs. Lacey and Bryson remained at Ensenada to ciose np the deal for the mine. Papers were signed whereby the Barenos bond the properties to Lacey brothers and their associates for $100,000, and the new managers are to erect a mill and develop the mines at once, the 1m- provements to become the property of the Barenos if the syndicate does not pur- chase the mine. Work on a large scale is to begin, the supplies and machinery to be shipped to the nearest port on the gulf and transporied thence by rail. When seen to-day Mr. Lacey was very uncommunicative and Mr. Bryson almost as much so. They admitted that a deal was about consummated, but refused to say thatit was closed. From an equally reliable source, however, the above figures were learned. Mr. Lacey said the mines were very rich and everything that they had been represented, bui the isolation and great cost of transporting supplies and machinery prevented their develop- ment up to this time. By uiilizing schooners on the gulf, however, and build- ing roads to connect the mines with the landing it is expected that the cost will be reduced to a reasonable figure. The principal mine of the group, on which the Barenos have aone enough work to prove its richness, has a romantic history. It is called the Lost Mine. The father of the Bareno brothers discovered it origi- nally and prospecied it somewhat, but while at work alone he wasovercome with mortal illness, and feeling that his time had come he marked signs upon a large granite bowider near his camp indicating the direction of the mine. The marks were made with charcoal and covered with grease, which servea as a paint that was proof against the weather for a number of years. In their search for their father the Bareno brothers stumbled upon the curi- ous marks upon the great bowlder and near it discovered the bones of their father. Following the signs as directed they came upon the mine, which they have worked ever since. The vein is very rich and Ltears indications of developing into the greatest bonanza yet uncovered on the peninsula. Rock running as high as $34,000 per ton has been taken from the shaft. The ore is said to average almost $100 per ton FIERCE STORM UP NORTH 0f Cyclonic Force in Oregon, Washington and British Columbia. The Violent G Acccmpanied by Rain Which Falls for Forty- E ght Hours, PORTLAND, Or., Nov. 13.—A storm of almost cyclonic proportions has been rag- inz over the Northwest for the past twenty-four hours, and the Weather Bureau reports that all the Northwest coast wires are down. Storm signals were hoisted yesterday at all the Oregon, Washington and British Columbia ports, warning all shipping not to leave the harbor. Private advices from Astoria say that heavy gales last night blew the ships ashore, but it is believed no great damage was done. A heavy rainfall is reported in Washington. Wind, with rain, at Port- land is blowing at the rate of forty-nine miles an hour. All the Weather Bureaun records for a continuous gale have been broken. il G VESSELS ¥OUL AT ASTORIA, Mishap to a River Steamer Which Causes a Panie. ASTORIA, Oe., Nov. 13.—One of the most farious windstorms that have visited this section for many years has been raging for the past forty-eight hours, with no immediate indications of abatement. At Fort Canby Observatory the maximum velocity of the wind was eighty-two miles, The damage so far has been shght, but two mishaps of any consequence having occurred. During the afternoon the British ship | dragged Penthesilea and British bark Criffe! . their anchors and fouled, the Penthesilea losing her mizzen topgallant yard. The Criffel was uninjured. The river steamer Grady, running between this city and Portiand, also had 8 mishap whi'e crossing Cathiamet Bay, her for- ward overhanging deck being torn loose. The passengers were thoroughly fright- ened, some of them running for’ life-pre- :‘ruzl. The damage in each case will be igh LOS ANGELES HAS BEGUN T0 BOOM Will Share the Prosperity to Follow McKinley's Election. Machine-Shops and Mills That Have Long Been Idle Are Starting Up. NEW STEEL PLANT PR(JICTED To Erect a Ten-Story Building—Big Orders for Mining Machinery From Arizoaa. LOS ANGELES, Car, Nov. 13.—The stimulus given to manufacturing and building interests in this city as a re—l sult of Major McKinley’s election has been very pronounced and is constantly hecom- ing more perceptible. The machine-shops and mills in the manufacturing district have in many instances aoubled their out- put, while glowing fires have been started | under many a furnace which had been a | long time dull, dead and cold. Along with this renewed activity in manufac-| ture a veritable building boom bas been | launched. The construction of a steel | plant isamong the many new enterprises | proposed for the near future. The man-| ager of a local iron and steel company | says that this will involve an outlay of $30,000, and continues: “We can get an ample supply of mate- rial to work up; it will make us independ- ent of the East and cause a saving of $5 or | $6 a ton. At present the manufacturer here is at a great disaavantage. The rail- roads charge just as much for the raw ma- terial as they do for the finished article. At one time there was $10 a ton differ- ence; then it was cut to $4, and now the rate is the same. Why 1s tnis? You will have to ask the railroad managers; taey are responsible’ for the discrimination against the West.” It is learned that a marked increased de- mand exists here for mining machinery for use principally in Arizona. One of the big projects for the coming year 1s a ten-story building at the north- west corner of Broadway and Becond streets. It is to put up for Charles Frost of Pasadena. Tt SR T MoLachlan Thinks of Contesting. LOS ANGELES, Cav., Nov. 13.—The of- ficial count of the vote in Los Angeles County was completed to-day, with no material change in the results already given. James McLachian R.is thinking of contesting the victory of C. A. Barlow, fusion candidate for Congress. S Arvaigned for the Bank Robbery. LOS ANGELES, CaL., Nov. 13.—Fred L. Jones and J. J. McCarthy, alleged to have tunneled under the First National Bank to rob the institution, were arraigned in the Superior Court to-day on charges of burglary. Their trial was set for Decem- FLOPED FROW VALLELL John McGinnis and His Child Sweetheart Arrested at Woodlanl. The Girl’s Mother Had Contemplated Placing Her in a Convent. WOODLAND, Car., Nov. 13.—A young man and women arrived in this city on last night's train and proceeded to the Byrns Hotel, where they registered as Maude Gardiner and William Gardiner, both of San Francisco. They were as- signed to rooms 21 and 22, respectively. Shortly afterward the couple appeared on the street and went to a restaurant, where they obtained supper. Their actions were viewed with some suspicion by several parties, as the young lady did not appear to be more than 15 years of age. It was ascertained early this morning that ghe young couple bad eloped from Vallejo. Shortly afterward Deputy Malone of Be- nicia and Constable Blessington of Va- 1lejo arrived in this city on a freight train and proceeded to the Byrns Hotel, where they found the two young people. They were piaced under arrest. The young man’s name is John Mec- Ginnis and he is employed as a brick mason in the navy-yard at Vailejo. The young lady proved to be Juliet Vashon, who, it is claimed, is only 13 years of age, About three months ago Mrs. Emma L. Vashon and daughter Juliet, whose home is in British Columbia, arrived at Vallejo to pay an extended visit to relatives and friends. Shortly after their arrival Mrs, Vashon decided to place her daughter in theconvent at that place. On Thursday evening the girl did not return to her home at the usual hour, and Mrs. Vashon began to make a search for her. 8he soon learned that McGinnis and the girl had procured a rig at the livery stable and had been driven over to Benicia. Mrs. Vashon was very angry, and hunted up a Justice of the Peace and swore to a complaint charging McGinnis with ab- duction. The warrant of arrest was placed L0128 CTaft coming and going at this port in the officers’ hands and the latter boarded a freight train for Davisville, where they made connection with one ot the freight trains which arrived in this city this morning. Young McGinnis does not seem to be alarmed over his arrest, an1 says that he will proeure bail as soon as he arrives at Vallejo. Officers Malone and Blessington left for B nicia on this afternoon’s train with the eloping coupie. P MACHINERY FOR MEXICO. Mtockton Reoeives iarge Orders for the . Atate of Sonora. S8TOCKTON, CAr., Nov. 13.—Senor Don Aureliano L. Torres, son of General Lorenzo Torres, in command of the Fed- eral troops in the State of Spnora, Mexico, and a nephew of Governor Luis E. Torres of that State, paid Stockton a visit to-day. He has been traveling through the south- ern part of California and is now visiting the central portion to inspect agricultural and mining machinery. He came to this city for the express purpose of looking at the machinery made here for harvesting purposes, Stockton has !ong been famed ior this, and belore the distingnished Mex- ican left to-day e had contracted for an immense amount of acricultural mu:hin-I ery to be shipped from Stockton to Sonora. Among other thin's was a big com- bined harvester, the like of which has hever been seen in the section from which Torres comes. At present the harvesting is done by means of the old-styie mowers and threshineg machines, but the younger blood in the State of Sonora has deter- mined to introduce more modern methods and Stockton was selected as the place where the newest agricultural appliances could be secured. Eenor Torres left this afternoon for Sac- ramento. Aliter inspecting the Capitol City be will yisit San Francisco, where it 1s expected by himself and party that they will be able to make large purchases of mining mactiinery for use in Mexio. ki e STOCKTON STEAMERS STRANDED. Heavy Fog and Low Water Make It Difficult to Keep in the Middie of the Stream. STOCKTON, Can, Nov. 13.—About 9 o’clock this mornin - a telephone message was received at the Mail office from Boul- den Island, stating that the steamer Dauntless had run on a sandbar in the Kokelumne River, just opposite the land- ing there, near the junction of that stream with the San Joaquin River. The boat had left the San Jjoaquin to go about three miles up the Mokelumne to Valen- tine. She wason her uptrip to this city and she was strandea about 1 o’clock this morning. The two boats of the old line—the J. D. Peters and the City of Stockton—both got stuck coming up. The City of Stockton arrived about 10 o’clock this forenoon, and the Peters, which after- ward was floated, came in an bour later. Navigation is rendered very difficult by the extremely low water and the heavy fog on the river, which makes it almost impossible, except for the oid-time pilots, tokeepin the middle of the stream. When the tide rose the Dauntless, after repeated attempts, managed to iorce itself off the bar and into deep water again. She pro- ceeded up to Valentine and there went aground again. She extricated herself a second time, though, snd proceeded on her way to this city. She arrived here about 2 o’clock. The passengers had a nice daylight ride along the picturesque San Joaquin, and those who were not in a hurry were well pleased. VNCOUVER COPPER FIND Strange Incident That Led to the Fortune of a Farmer. Through the Pecuiiar Medium of a Bullfight He Locates a Rich Claim. VANCOUVER, B. C., Nov. .—When a cow kicked over a lantern and precipi- tated upon the city of Chicago a fire which will long be remembered on this conti- nent the bovine species camein for a large sbare of execration. Two members of the same species have recently, in an equally accidental manner, brought about a dis- covery which will do something to remove the stigma under which the family have rested so long. A farmer driving along the road ncar Kamloops, a station on the main line of the Canadian Pacific Rail- road, within a day’s journey from Van- couver, came across two buils engaged in what appeared to be a deadly struggle, and as one of the beasts was his own prop- erty he made a successful attempt to sepa- rate them. In the course of their struggle the bulls had disledged several large chunks of rock, which, being of a peculiar appearance—spotted blue and black— aroused the curiosity of the farmer, who took some of it with him and afterward submitted it to an assayer, with the re- su!t that he found it contained copper to the vafue ol $45 per ton. Bubsequently staking a claim and proceeding with the development the lucky finder exposed & iarge and well defined vein of ore, and now the encire locality has been staked out. ot MUST WAIT TO BE SHOUT. » Ruling of a Vancourer Justice in a Trial for Murder. VANCOUVER, B. C., Nov. 13.—Accord- ing to the ruling of Justice Drake, no one is justified in shooting another in British Columbia until the other has actually drawn his gun. In a case of murder tried here the deiense put 10 was that the dead man was in the act of drawing his re- volver, having put his hand in his hip- pocket for that purpose, the quickness of the man charged being in all probability the means of saving his own life. Judge Drake says that such a vlea on those grounds might be recoznized on the other side of the line, but it is not law in this country to shoot a man because he puts his hand behind his back. Ak L i Acquitted of a Homicide, VANCOUVER, B. C, Nov. 13.—7. A. Sheehan, who shot Josh McKenzie in Steveston last summer in a scuffle because McKenzie, a desperate character of the neighborhood, raised a disturbance at the cabin occupiea by Sheehan and precipi- tated a row, was acquitted by a jury to- day at the Vancouver fall essizes, the case being considered one of justitiable homi- cide. The dispute arose over the fact that both parties claimed to have rented the cabin, but Sheehan was in possession. ot il Five Years for a Vancouver Burglar.

Ciroumstances Point to the Conclusion That She Is Lost. SAN DIEGO, CaLn., Nov. 13. — Frank Morrison, owner of the sloop Meta, one of the Best fishing-boats sailing out of this port, left here on November 3 with a man named Frank Green, for a day's fishing near Coronado Islands. None of the many bas since seen anything of the Meta or her occupants and along the water front the sloop is believed to have gone down. Green was a worthless character and took & demijohn of liquor along when the sloop sailed, and toe frienas of Morrison think the men had trouble between them- selves. The sloop Pauline, Captain Jack Tyrell, just returned from the south, re- ports having seen the cabin and bowsprit of asmall vessel at Descanso, twenty-five miles south of here, and the wreckage is believed to be from the Meta.

DRAFT PAYABLE TO MUDGETT And Considerzb'e Money Found Upen the Accusad Is Not Satisfactoriiy Explained. CAHTO, CaL., Nov. 13.—At the conclu- sion of the preliminary hearing iu the Mudgett case to-day the accused, John Dodge and wife, were held to appear be- fore the Superior Court, and the prisoners were taken separately to the Ukiah jail. The evidence from the start tended to show no complicity on the part of Smith, Noble, Ferguson and the parants of Dodge, and all were accordingly exonerated. Bmith and Noble are identified as the two men upcn whom suspicion in the first instance was directed and for whom the officers made such diligent search. These men vresented themseives at the hearing volunta:ily and were witnesses for the defense, The apparent desire of many of the wit- nesses for the pros-cutian to convict the accused was a noticeable feature of the proceedings and showed the pulse of pub- lic favor was against them. The text of the testimony, as shown on both sides, seemed to be of a very flimsy character and was remarkable for 11s indefiniteness. The chief witnesses for the defense, Smith and Noble, endeavored to account for the draft payable to Mudgett and found in Dodge’s possession as having been paid to bim for work performed on the murdered man’s ranch. The handwriting of Mudgett being strange, there was no positive identifica. tion of it being genuine. The money found upon the persons of the prisoner and wife was accounted for by the wife's declaration that she had earned it in the capacity of a domestic before she was mar- ried, and that only six months having elapsed since their marriage she had not spent it all. The reasons for their de- parture from the scene of the murder was unsatisfactorily explained by a statement from the accused that they were on their way to visit the Noble iamily when ar- rested. The witnesses for the prosecution were all of a decidedly circumstantial nature, consisting of many foreign facts that were difficult to sustain as a complete chain of evidence. The prosecution, however, hold that the evidence of the large amount of money and the Mudgett draft were not clearly accounted for, and after a careful review of the evidence the prisoners were bound over io the higher court. The con- clusion of the hearing gives entire satis- faction to the citizens of this community. JAPANESE FUNCTION AT TACOMA. Court Ball and Dinner in Honor of the Mikado's Birthday.
